This beautiful outdoor party rivals any other rehearsal dinner, or even wedding, with long wooden tables filled with gorgeous florals, linens, and flatware underneath a sea of market lighting and lit up oak trees! As the sun set, family and friends gathered around the bride and groom to-be for the prettiest pre-wedding celebration we’ve ever seen. We can thank Currant Events for the dreamy decor and Mallory Miya Photography for capturing it all!

On a warm and beautiful California evening, 85 family and friends gathered on the large outdoor patio of Barone’s Restaurant to celebrate the upcoming wedding of Julie and Collin. Guests were greeted by a hand lettered chalkboard easel topped with a spray of flowers. Cocktails and passed hor d’oeuvres were served under a huge heritage oak tree. Custom built dark wood trellises held Italian cafe lights delineated the dining area. A lovely three course dinner was served under the lighted trellis using three rows of 32′ long dark wood communal tables with a combination of cross back farm chairs and long benches. Tablescape included a taupe runner, lush florals in a combination of wood boxes and footed glass containers. Each place setting included a white charger, copper flatware, natural hemstitched linen napkin topped with personalized printed menu to denote seating placement.

The autumn inspired florals on the dining, cocktail, and occasional tables were a combination of burgundy dahlias, chrysanthemums, roses, dusty miller, and fresh artichokes.
